Last year I did great at our local craft fair, this year not so much. I did better than a lot of the other vendors, but the crowd wasn't there. I just went to two big area craft shows and I noticed it wasn't nearly as crowded as it has been in the past. I think alot of it, people are downsizing or minimalizing on stuff. Younger people aren't intested in handmade or crafts so much. For me, I usually buy one or two things when I go. My last craft show I attended a weekend ago, I tt one vendor and she said she hadn' even made her booth rent back and that was at the end of the fair weekend. She was so heartbroken, I did buy a few things from her that hopefully helped her come closer to meeting her booth fee and wished her well. Maybe it is changing with the times too.
